piperX, helps accelerate a lot more at higher speeds (foot down at 60 it will pull a lot better than air box), not a massive at lower speeds.

1-2bhp if that. drilling your airbox and fitting cold air feeds will have same effect.

i love the way ppl are willing to cheap out on something which can totally ruin ure car.... spend a few extra quid and buy a proper filter like Pipercross or K&N .etc instead of max flower one's

i'm trying to find a k&n filter panel and put air box back on drilled near arch cos it drinks hot air in summer (not enough cool air to keep engine bay cool) plus i've heard they can kill air flow metre

1-2bhp if that. drilling your airbox and fitting cold air feeds will have same effect.
I have a 1.6 Sport with the bmc, a Janspeed exhaust and de-cat pipe and it came off the rolling road at 125 bhp. I'd like to think the bmc was worth a little more than 2 bhp... especially as it's jumped 19 bhp over standard!

which RR was this then either that is a dodgy reading, or you have an extremely strong 16XE under there. 19bhp from just those mods seems a little high, especially with the strangled inlet you have on there now.
